A version of Jormungandir existed in the [[Prime Universe]]. In December 2021, as he did every winter, he left his post encircling the Earth to burrow into the [[World Below]] and visit his father [[Loki#In the Prime Universe|Loki]]. On the way, he met [[Juliet-178]], [[Pythagoras-858]] and [[Tero Trollgarsson]], who had been sent on a quest by a goddess who was, unbeknownst to all but Pythe, [[Sigyn#In the Prime Universe|Sigyn]], Jormungandir's own stepmother, to slay the [[Wyrm of Loki]]. However, after a fruitless conversation trying to ascertain whether Jormungandir considered himself to be a “seprent” or a “[[wyrm]]”, Trollgarsson came to the erroneous conclusion that Jormungandir himself was their target, and charged at him. Due to Jormungandir's impenetrable hide, this had little effect, and neither did his missed attempt to throw a rock at one of the serpent's eyes. | A version of Jormungandir existed in the [[Prime Universe]].

Their battle was prevented from going any further by the appearance of [[CS-NA]]. Recognising that, despite the robot's belief that he had only [[shift]]ed there using randomised coordinates, the coincidence was too great, he came to the conclusion, with the Cupids' help, that the digital throw of dice must have been remotely altered by Loki himself to get CS-NA there at the right time.

After convincing the serpent not to harm Cesse (who he temporarily thought might be another candidate for the “Spider” of the prophecy, and thus best gotten out of the way despite the Cupids' theory), Pythe and Juliet realise that the [[Wyrm]] they must actually defeat could only be the venom-dripping [[Wyrm of Loki|serpent]] affixed above [[Loki#In the Prime Universe|Loki]]'s prison to prevent him from escaping. Realising that the fulfillment of the Cupids' mission might be to his father's benefit, Jormungandir agreed to lead them, Trollgarsson and Cesse to the chamber where Loki was imprisoned.
